So, I leave for Austria in under two days... the bike is packed. I'm going for a conference for work then a three day tour on the Danube River Trail all by myself and ... I don't speak German... none! I think I'll probably be lost in Austria for three days, but my goal is to ride from Lenz to Vienna (about 160 miles) over three days. It seems very doable, but the trail seems like it's tough to follow. The guidebook says things like, "go through the cobblestone square and take a right at the white farmhouse" - what if they painted the farmhouse? I don't know that I have ever had such mixed emotions! The good news is, I'm not very social and conferences usually freak me out, but I have hardly given a thought to the conference I'll post picures when I get home (provided I get home...)
